A technology has been developed that uses robots rather than humans to evaluate the performance of newly developed catalysts. By operating 45 times faster than manual work while also improving ...

Gabriel Gomes built an agent that turns plain English into physical experiments, enabling research that humans alone could never sustain ...

It’s well understood that spiders have poor eyesight and thus sense the vibrations in their webs whenever prey (like a fly) gets caught; the web serves as an extension of their sensory system. But ...

Researchers have developed a digital laboratory (dLab) system that fully automates the material synthesis and structural, physical property evaluation of thin-film samples. With dLab, the team can ...

A dual-robot platform fully automates catalyst performance evaluation from sample loading to data collection, completing tests 45 times faster with 32% less variability.

Live Science readers reveal whether they would use a hypothetical "pregnancy robot" — a humanoid machine fitted with an artificial womb to sustain a human pregnancy from conception until birth. When ...

In a recent paper published by Professor Xin Li and Dr. Yanlong Guo from the Institute of Tibetan Plateau Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences, the authors explore the profound paradigm shift in ...

A hopping, insect-sized robot can jump over gaps or obstacles, traverse rough, slippery, or slanted surfaces, and perform aerial acrobatic maneuvers, while using a fraction of the energy required for ...
